[More than half of candidates (54%)] say candidate experience directly influences whether they choose to buy a company’s products or services according to ManpowerGroup Solutions latest survey of nearly 18,000 candidates in 24 markets.

"Job seekers are increasingly measuring their experiences against the same standards they use for buying products and services online,” said Simon Matthews, Country Manager, ManpowerGroup Vietnam, Thailand and The Middle East "Developing a robust strategy to ensure candidates have a great candidate experience at every touch point is critical to attracting the brightest and best and nurturing existing or future consumers. Transparent job descriptions, clear values and offering a good interview experience all contribute to the experience, and ultimately to both whether a candidate accepts an offered position or chooses your products and services.”

Showcasing a clear mission, attractive company culture and demonstrating commitment to social responsibility are valued by candidates. Poor salary transparency or a lack of response to an application submission is cited at as the type of experience most likely to negatively impact consumer purchasing intent – more so than rejection after an interview.

The report makes a number of practical recommendations on how companies can enhance the experience including assessing the end-to-end recruitment process from a candidate perspective, improving transparency and speed of response at every touch point and developing an attractive employer brand aligned to the consumer brand.
